Hi,
We are currently in the process of configuring VCL 2.2.1 to work on a
Power 7 blade. Our current setup is:
1. A web-server that hosts the Database and the Web Code. The same
server acts as the Management node. xCAT is configured as the
provisioning module on this node.
2. Power7 is our compute node.
3. I used the command "vcld --setup" command to create/capture base
image of RHEL 5 that is running on the Power7 blade (by specifying the
IP address of Power7 blade when prompted for an address).
The creation process failed as Xianqing Yu had mentioned to us earlier.
Although, before it failed it created appropriate entries in the tables
image, imagerevision and resource. I was able to "Undelete" the image
from the web page and see it under "New Reservations".
I am facing similar problems that Mike Waldron had faced with the
reservation. Even after making memory adjustment, I wasn't able to make
a reservation. The time table shows all green (available), however, when
I choose any entry from the list, it takes me directly to "New
Reservation" page without any status/feedback. And, I don't see any
reservations created when I check under "Current Reservations". I am
just assuming the groupings of Images and Computers are correct, is
there anyway I could verify the same. Also, if there is any reference to
how the grouping need to be done, please let me know of the same.
Please do correct me if there is anything wrong with the system setup.
